First 172

[Rich2509]

Good evening all,

Just picked up my new motor on Friday gone. I must be honest and admit I have had a couple of type R's in my time, was on the look for another. The better half said what about a Clio, gave it some thought. I researched a bit on the net as you do, blooming heck! Was I surprised when I took it for a test drive.

I love you it.... Just a quick question, what are the best tyres to buy? Apologies, if this is in the wrong section, I'm a bit of a techno biff!!

Thanks in advance for any advice.

TVM. Rich.

I adore flame red. Car looks great mate.

For an all rounder if you excuse the pun, you'll want michelin pilot sport 3's without a doubt.

Looks a sweet example, worth checking the service history for when the belts were last done and for when serviced last too ;-).

16's i'd go for PS3s 15's i'd go for PE2s. Had pzero neros on and thought they were ok too bit nowt to write home about.

Obviously depends on what you want them for like but above seem to be well liked for all but track dedicated stuff, where you might want RSRs or R888s.

Thanks for tyre advice, you lads know your stuff PS3's it is then. Checked history all good, belts being done twice, so that's good news.
